Introducing Brinjal

Decided to cook stew pork since it has been ages. I decided to use both drumlets & pork belly, pork knuckle, together with tau Kwa and eggs. Pairing the fragrant stew with sambal brinjal and was thinking what to cook for the kids since I nvr really did any marketing over the long weekend. (Too busy running about)

Since I never introduce brinjal before, I decided to do a variation of brinjal that is not spicy and yummy for the kids. I added mixed veg and eggs, minus the sambal. Adding a dash of fish gravy will do the trick. Looks appetizing and colourful after I am done with the dish. It goes well with the stew, in my views.

Not too sure about the kids liking it, but I definetely never see them do the signature 'vomit' face when the spoonful of brinjal goes in their mouth. Both kids finish up the dinner. Great! And hubby definetely loves it, he says it is nicer than the sambal version. (Cos he doesn't like the bottle of dried shrimps sambal) 

I will definetely cook to again. I am submitting this to the Little Thumbs Up "Egg" event hosted by Baby Sumo of Eat Your Heart Out, organized by Bake for Happy Kids, my little favourite DIY.
